Inside West Coast Customs


Recommended Posts

I admire their bodywork and metal fabrication, especially when they do that thing where they put a new car's interior inside an old car, and they do some sick paint jobs, but I don't really like the fact that they rush everything at the end, but then again, I don't know how shops really work, could be a very common thing, or customization takes a lot longer than what West Coast Customs does.

I don't like the audio section that much though, the guy is kinda bad at it, like he put 3 sealed 8's in a lancer, and left no space in the back to put anything and had them facing the trunk, and he only seems to build only sealed enclosures, I've never seen a ported enclosure from him. If I had the money, I'd left them do bodywork, and paint jobs, but audio, I won't let them get near it.

The CTSV was ported through the rear deck i think.

Except its an automatic...

Automatic or not it's a V that supercharged v8 will eat almost anything on the street. That ish was hard though not even going to lie, sucks his dorky ass is driving but I can't hate on him or that car. The music looked meh but the rest is dope. I am not a big fan of West Coast Customs though their work always looked gimmicky and ricey but they do, do some pretty cool stuff.

Well, I haven't been seeing many episodes lately, cause Velocity barely shows the show, and I can't find any websites with episodes, but maybe the audio guy is getting better.

I think theyre wack. They really don't do anything custom, let's put TVs here, rims here, exhaust here, paint job...done.

Even Biebers caddy. Engine bay was still the stock color (huge pet prevent of mine) and I didn't watch it all but didnt someone else do the doors? Interior work seemed meh.

If anything, their paintjobs can be really nice...they can also be super ricer and gay.

now this is definetely a hater comment.

seriously they do NOTHING custom..lets get real here.

Yep, I burn with such envy in Alaska. The hater is flowing out, let's get real here. Because someone does not like something does not make them a hater, I don't understand this notions. And when you use the same outline for every car, is it truly custom? Sorry, but when I think custom I think one of a kind. There isn't a lot of one of a kinders coming out of there, not from the total of 20 minutes I've watched collectively. TVs here, TVs there, rims, paint jobs, and boom. Totally custom, nothing similar there at all.

Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?

They do some cool stuff sometimes and I am impressed but they almost always do something to the vehicle that ruins it for me. Watching their install techniques on the show can be painful at times. Their car stereo installs are usually pretty weak IMO.

I do like how those doors on the CTS turned out.
